Ukrainian president doubles down on target for accession despite pushback from some European leaders
Speaking of talks, Volodymyr Zelenskyy doesn’t seem to be too keen on Vladimir Putin’s repeated and provocative suggestions that he could come to Moscow.
In his comments to journalists this morning, reported by Ukrainska Pravda, Zelenskyy said:
“It is absolutely impossible for me to meet with Putin in Moscow. That would be the same as meeting with Putin in Kyiv. I can just as well invite him to Kyiv – let him come. I am publicly inviting him, if he dares, of course.”
“I have always said that I am ready for any format aimed at ending the war that actually works.
But in Moscow or in Belarus, this is simply impossible – and it is absolutely clear why: because one of these countries is the aggressor that started and is waging the war against us, killing us, while the other country is its partner in these actions.”
